[Q] com.android.sandbox (Chrome sandbox process drains battery) - Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I've tried googling this but the problem is either not widespread or its simply normal. When I use Chrome, sometimes the sandbox process will appear and it will absolutely drain my battery. The screenshot below is considered pretty good, at times I can see the process second top in the battery eating race after screen. Does anyone else encounter this? How do I fix it?

I have experienced this from time to time and I know others who use Chrome more extensively may see 3+ on their battery list by the end of the day which is disheartening.
I can't say how to fix it or what they even represent though.
Here is a thread discussing the topic:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/google-nexus-5/help/chrome-sandboxed-processes-killing-t2575649

I have the same problem and is driving me crazy as I tried other browsers cause of that but ended up returning to Chrome. If you find a fix please let me know. I searched the entire web for a solution and nothing yet...

Hey,
I've posted a few times about my battery issues, im glad everyone has tried helping me so before I give up on my sensation i'd like to see if anyone knows whats going on with the straight battery drops.
My phone is running ARHD 3.16
Kernal: 0.2.8
Radio: 10.58.9035
If anyone has any clue about what's going on please tell me.
it can have 100 causes.
But you can do a simple test.
If you use a stock rom:
You can try to do a hard reset, and use your phone without any installed apps. And download battery monitor widget and just watch how quick your line drops down. And with that tool you can test your battery Ma and Mi.
If you use a mod rom:
Just try another mod and another drivers. And watch if that helps.
If not, then you can start watch for another battery or maybe there is a shorcut that drains your battery quick.
But that is difficult to see over this forum

Do you use GpsFix to facilitate & speed up your gps satellite fixation ?
if the answer is YES so I'm sorry that you have to remove it now.
As the program in its update became a spam, putting an ad on the home screen as reported by users.
But the problem with me was a whole different story, more annoyingly critical.
I'm usually not connected to internet turning off my my mobile data, lately my phone (HTC DESIRE S) became crazy with its screen turning on & off by itself frequently draining my battery in horrible manner.
After days of searching for the cause with removing a lot a lot of programs till i knew the cause (thank god before factory data resetting) that was the GpsFix.
The good thing that every thing works normal again.

Battery Problems i think

I am new to Android and have my HTC One S and seems as though my screen on time is much less than my keep awake value. I have only push email on in terms of sync so not sure what else i can do. I have attached some BetterBatteryStats but am unsure of what they mean. Any chance someone could please help to determine if they see the cause? I should say i am getting about 10 hours out of my battery....again new to Android so not sure if that is expected...i hope not. thank you.

If your rooted I can help you out, personally I'm not a fan of better battery stats but it does give you some information, it looks to me like your on the phone a lot in 10 hours but a friend of mine released something that will help a lot if your rooted.

You can stay stock, no need for flashing anything else if your not ready for it and it won't hurt the device.
I can show you how to add init.d without having to install a rom and install the mod after.
This is the results for today and I've used it a lot.

i had a similar wakelock problem on my nexus with certain early jellybean ROMs, the fix then was to open maps and let it get a lock, then exit. sorry if this doesn't help.

Are you using latitude? Make sure if you're not you check the settings to say that you're opted out of latitude.

Touch event order - better handling of mouseover/hover

Hi,
Sorry if this has been asked before, but I was wondering if there is an android browser that handles touch and hover/mouseover the way safari does in iOS:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
If you try to use a website like John Lewis, or M&S, you will see that mouseover is used a lot to show menus, and touching the mouseover elements jumps you straight to a section you might not want. I'm aware of the workaround that involves touching the element and the sliding off it, but this is a horrible kludge of a workaround. Is there a browser that does this like Safari (above), which IMO is simply a lot better? Seems relatively straightforward (but I'm not a developer, so I wouldn't know).
So am I the only one who has problems with this issue? Judging by the deafening silence in response, I guess so. Which is wierd because it's enough to completely turn my other half off browsing the web with an Android tablet.
